Younis Khan returned as Pakistan captain, two days after refusing to
lead the team for the Champions Trophy in India, Pakistan Cricket Board
officials announced on Saturday.

&nbsp

In a strange twist of events, newly-appointed PCB chairman Nasim Ashraf
announced Younis and not Mohammad Yousuf would lead Pakistan in the
elite tournament. Ashraf took over as PCB chairman after incumbent
chairman Shaharyar Khan resigned Friday night.

&nbsp

Younis has been reappointed as captain and we have decided not to
take Mushtaq Ahmed as assistant coach for the Trophy, Ashraf said,
apparently on advice from Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf, who is
also patron of the PCB.
